My Hearing's Alright (to the tune of "Feelin' Alright")

The most recent song: presenting "My Hearing's Alright," to the tune of "Feelin' Alright" by Joe Cocker.  Pretty sure that this is the only song ever to work the primitive bat Onychonycteris in!  Below is the link to the song:




Here are the lyrics to the song:


Seems I've got to have the best hearing
Cuz under a few feet of snow I hear lemmings
My hearing's just as good as a dolphin
Random clicks and whistles or so it seems
To them its sounds as loud as a scream
But they're using echolocation to help them see

My hearing's alright, (uh oh)
My hearing's quite good myself (uh oh) (x2)

There's no use in, tryin' to go and hide
Above your heads I'm way up high
Using echolocation while I'm above to help myself while flyin'
Suddenly under an attack, bugs just don't know why
Eating mosquitoes and their allies
Other bats drink blood I can't deny

My hearing's alright, (uh oh)
My hearing's quite good myself (uh oh) (x2)

52.5 million years from today
A bat named Onychonycteris lived, that's hard to say
Researchers say that this bat could fly but not echolocate
So these bats probably flew during the day
'Til something came along to take their place
The birds had come at last: to the night they chased

My hearing's alright, (uh oh)
My hearing's quite good myself (uh oh) (x2)
